Alexei,

first of all. All new user has to read the README and all other normal
informations about Minivend. For example...

Welcome to MiniVend, originally based on Vend.  This program is
completely unsupported, without warranty of any kind. The author is
interested in problems, suggestions, or comments, but does not have time
to offer free individual support in most cases. See the MiniVend website at
http://www.minivend.com/minivend/ for more information.

or an example coming from minivend.html

MiniVend is powerful, and correspondingly complex. 
                            ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^             
It can easily handle catalogs of a million items or more, with excellent performance. It has completely flexible page display, search, and order entry capability. If you only
have a few items to catalog, MiniVend is probably overkill for your needs. 
But if you are willing to spend some up-front learning time, 
    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^  
it can support your simple catalog with unlimited room to grow. To get a fast start with a
simple catalog, start with the simple demo and customize from there.

You _want_ a shop system like Minivend. You get this _free_.

I believe, you are very able to read and write any english text. How
about other people like me, who has another native language or who has
a poor english like me? Iīve no advantage, if i get a very good written
documentation and the software doesnīt work. I this case, I waste my
times more than the other ways like Minivend. I am very very sure about
Mike Heins work. He is permanently improving the Minivend and Minivend
is a very fine running system. Where can you find such kind of power
behind Minivend? Once more, i would prefer to get a fine running
software _and_ a document, which is difficult to read than vice versa
(reverse).

Donīt worry and be happy. 

Thatīs my 2 cents!

Regards,

	Joachim
